Chapter four hundred and ninety-two: the fish becomes the essence, the snake seeks the way
At this time, Lin Jin strolled to the pond in the backyard. The pond here was not big, much smaller than the lake outside the academy. The water in the pond was light green and slightly turbid.
"No fish?"
Lin Jin looked at the calm pool surface with some surprise.
But then he thought about it and Wang Xin said that although this Peach Blossom Residence is elegant, it has not been allocated to other teachers for a long time. Since no one lives in it, even if there are fish, there is no one to take care of it, so it is okay to have no fish.
It's just that this pond doesn't look like a pool of stagnant water. It has no peculiar smell and is very clean.
"Let's find some fish and put them in some other time." Lin Jin murmured to himself, and was about to leave, when the water in the pond seemed to have ripples.
Lin Jin caught sight of this scene from the corner of his eyes and immediately stopped and turned to look.
Nothing.
But the ripples are indeed there, as if someone had just thrown a pebble in.
Lin Jin is not an ordinary appraiser. His perception is extremely strong. At that moment, he clearly felt an extremely weak aura.
Demonic spirit.
If Lin Jin hadn't been very confident about his nose, he might have thought that the feeling just now was an illusion.
Obviously not.
You can make mistakes in other things, but Lin will never make mistakes in things like demonic energy. Among the exercises he practices, the method of receiving qi has an orifice for ventilation. He has already opened it, especially for demonic qi. As long as there is
Not a trace escaped his nose.
"There is actually evil spirit in the academy? How brave you are." Lin Jin murmured to himself.
He was naturally curious. After all, this was Tianxuan Academy. There were more than twenty fourth-ring beast appraisers working here as teachers. As for the three-ring appraisers, there were hundreds.
These are all masters. Any one of them has a third-level beast pet, and there are even more fourth-level beast pets. Here, there are actually hidden demons and demonic beasts. It must be said that this demonic beast is quite courageous.
Lin Jin pretended to leave at this time, but he used a blind trick to secretly come back and observe the pond not far away.
After a while, Lin Jin saw a shadow of a fish slowly appear from under the pond, and then a large fish with blue scales showed its head. This was a carp, but it was the largest one Lin Jin had ever seen, just in length.
More than five feet, generally speaking, it is impossible for such a big fish to survive in such a large pond.
What's more, it's a carp that already has a demonic aura.
"What does it plan to do?" Lin Jin was a little curious at this moment. He now had many questions, such as how the carp spirit survived in Tianxuan Academy.
You must know that there are many experts here. The opponent can hide for a day or two, but it is absolutely impossible not to be discovered all the time. The four-ring appraisers in the academy are not decorations.
This question could not be answered for the time being, but Lin Jin was not in a hurry. He seemed to have discovered something interesting and began to look forward to the decryption process.
After all, in Lin Jin's eyes, the strength of this carp spirit was simply not good enough. It seemed that this carp spirit should only be at the third level. If Lin Jin was willing, he could subdue it in minutes, or even kill it directly.
After waiting for a long time, Lin Jin saw a snake coming from a distance.
The white-scaled snake is seven feet long and swims extremely fast. It can be seen that the body of this white snake is quite thick and there must be something hidden in its belly.
The white snake swam to the shore. When the carp in the water saw the white snake, it swung its tail excitedly and splashed a lot of water.
It seems that the carp spirit is very much looking forward to the arrival of this white snake.
Soon, Lin Jin knew why.
I saw the white snake opened its mouth and spat out, and several mice protruded. They must have been swallowed by the white snake not long ago. Although they were dead, they were still very fresh. The big carp opened its mouth and swallowed them in a few mouthfuls.
It's for eating.
What’s interesting is that the one who feeds it is actually a snake. This white snake obviously already has some intelligence, otherwise it wouldn’t come to feed the carp spirit, but it can’t be called a demon. If we look at Taoism in terms of cultivation,
It's far worse than carp essence.
The carp spirit may have been full, so it swam quickly in the small pond, shaking its fat body, and then it spoke.
Lin Jin was not surprised.
A third-level carp spirit, his cultivation level is not bad, but he is somewhat similar to the old black jade dragon. He has already refined the horizontal bones, but he still doesn't understand the art of transformation.
Normally speaking, it is impossible for such a beast to achieve enlightenment on its own. In other words, the carp spirit has a 'teacher'. Whether it is a formal apprenticeship or someone who gives random guidance, it must be guided by an expert.
Coincidentally, there is no shortage of experts in the academy.
On the contrary, the white snake only has a little spiritual intelligence, no cultivation, and no refined cross bones. In terms of realm, he is far behind the carp spirit.
At this moment, the carp spirit's speech was slurred, a bit like he was talking with water in his mouth.
"Bai Lin, for the sake of you bringing delicious food to me every day, I will teach you a few formulas. Please listen carefully. As for whether I can let you enter the Taoism, Old Yu, I don't know.
Now, it depends on your luck." The carp spirit looked at ease like an old god, and at this time he actually started to speak.
That should be the most basic magic beast training method. It is not profound. Compared with the five complete beast Qi refining skills in Lin Jin's hand, it is simply vulgar and has no comparison at all. But that white snake, but
It listened to it in a mesmerizing way. Apparently, it had begun to gain spiritual intelligence and could understand human speech.
The big carp kept talking for a long time, and then said: "That's all for now. If you still want to listen next time, you have to get me some more food. The teacher said that I am not allowed to eat the fish in the lake, and
Some small shrimps and the like are not enough for me, so I can have a full meal from you."
This is obviously a complaint, and it can be seen from this sentence that the big carp and the white snake have a good relationship. Of course, they each get what they need. The big carp needs to eat more to fill his stomach, while the white snake wants to practice his skills.
, enter the Tao from here.
In addition, Lin Jin also heard a key point.
The big carp mentioned the 'teacher'. In other words, it was just as he had guessed, it had a teacher. Moreover, this pond is connected to the big lake in the academy. This is indeed a very surprising thing, of course.
It is not difficult to verify this. You just need to go into the water and take a look. Others may not be able to do it, but Lin Jin has a water-pregnant armor that can perfectly control the surrounding water, so it is not a difficult task for him at all.
Lin Jin did not disturb the white snake and the big carp.
Strictly speaking, this pond is the home of the big carp, and the white snake is dedicated to the Tao and has not done anything evil. Lin Jin will not cause trouble for them for no reason.
At this time, the big carp said again: "Bai Lin, please go back. A gentleman from the academy moved into Taohua Juli today. He is quite young. I secretly saw him before. You should be more careful when you come here in the future. Don't let others look at you."
Come here, otherwise I won’t be able to save you if he kills you.”
He was actually telling the white snake to be careful.
White Snake understood, so he nodded repeatedly, and then swam away. The big carp also bubbled for a while, then dived into the water and disappeared without a trace.
Lin Jin removed the blinding technique and was quite curious and found it interesting.
Lin Jin definitely wanted to explore this pond to see if it really connected to the inner lake of the academy outside, but not now.
Lin Jin's sharp ears and eyes had already heard the voices and footsteps outside Taohua Ju. It sounded like Li Xinqi and a few of his disciples had arrived.
Students are responsible for cleaning the teacher's residence. This is also the rule of Tianxuan Academy. In addition, students are also required to take care of the teacher's food and daily life, and they can even live in the teacher's yard.
